Reloadify Frontend Sync
Reloadify Frontend Sync is a developer and QA tool designed to streamline the workflow when building sites with page builders like Elementor and Divi.
Instead of manually refreshing your frontend every time you save a change, Reloadify Frontend Sync automatically reloads every connected browser or window, keeping all your frontend previews synchronized without interrupting your workflow.
Why Use Reloadify?
Manually refreshing the frontend after every save interrupts your workflow and wastes time, especially when testing across multiple browsers.
Reloadify Frontend Sync keeps every open browser automatically synchronized, allowing you to focus on building instead of constantly refreshing.
Key Features
- Works with Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Oxygen, Beaver Builder, WPBakery Page Builder, and the classic WordPress editor.
- Cross-browser, cross-window reload — enabled out of the box for Chrome, Brave, Edge, Firefox, Safari, Opera, UC Browser, Vivaldi, Yandex Browser, and Samsung Internet, normal and incognito/private alike.
- Reloads any frontend page (home, archives, search results — not just the exact post you’re editing).
- Choice of soft reload or cache-busting hard reload.
- A Last change detected readout with a one-click Check now button, so you can confirm the plugin picked up a save without waiting for a frontend tab to reload.
- A modern settings dashboard with per-browser cards and live status.
- Speed Boost — on by default: strips the emoji script, trims unused
<head>tags, throttles the Heartbeat API, caps stored post revisions, disables self-pingbacks, and eases wp-admin memory/time limits for heavy builders — all reversible with one toggle. - Media Optimization — on by default: new image uploads get WebP/AVIF versions automatically (Automatic picks the best your server supports, or pin WebP/AVIF yourself), video is compressed in the background when ffmpeg is available, offscreen images and embedded video are lazy-loaded, and a new Optimization column in the Media Library shows the real, measured size saved on every file.
- Extensions tab — optional SVG upload support (off by default; scanned for scripts/embedded HTML before accepting) and an optional Scroll To Top floating button (off by default; configurable position and color).
- An honest Server Performance panel: applies memory_limit / max_execution_time automatically, and generates ready-to-paste php.ini / .htaccess snippets for the settings a plugin genuinely cannot change at runtime (opcache, upload/post size limits, realpath cache).
- Intelligent exclusion: never triggers a reload loop inside the builder canvas itself.

How It Works (for end users)
- Install and activate the plugin — no configuration needed to start; everything works out of the box.
- Open your page in the builder (Elementor, Divi, etc.) in one browser tab.
- Open the same page’s live frontend view in another tab, another window, or even another browser entirely.
- Make a change and save it in the builder as normal.
- The frontend tab reloads on its own within a couple of seconds — no manual refresh needed.
- If you ever need to fine-tune behavior (turn off a specific browser, switch to hard reload, check server settings), go to Auto Reloader in your wp-admin sidebar.
